bristolcitysweden Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 I was sorry to see him leave as I had hoped the club had a long term plan for him to become the new manager. Anyone knows where he is now? Cheers Tommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spudski Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 You can blame a certain knob of an ex manager for his departure. He felt threatened by him. His knowledge of football is second to none. Contrary to popular belief, he encouraged a winning mentality, and saw it as essential to the development of young players.

No...it was BT who bought him to the Club and wanted him to stay...he was gutted when he left. Who do you think it was...? Think big ego, and who brought in his henchmen in to act as 'Bouncers' in the Academy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bristolcitysweden Posted December 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 We need to get our wing play back on track to support Tammy in the way he like it.

But I don't see why SC would think Anton was a threat - probably more that he didn't trust him. Don't know who the bouncers were - certainly not Wade Elliott. Trust me on this one fella...he felt threatened by him. Pretty much from the horses mouth. Made his life hell. CA knows more about development football in his little finger than ol flared ego does about anything in modern football. WE left because he wanted more say in who was being brought into the academy. That was one of the reasons anyway. Hence ending up as assistant coach at FGR's academy. Can't remember the name of the two bouncers SC brought in from previous clubs he'd worked with.

Phileas Fogg Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 Shaun Brooks and Paul Groves RE: Anton, I remember hearing at the time that his departure was partly because he was too tough with the players and expected too much. Parents complained and he left under a bit of a cloud. Shame because I liked the idea of us having some ideas from abroad in our coaching. Is that just the narrative the club wanted to know then @spudski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that just the narrative the club wanted to know then @spudski Yes he did change things...made it more inline with what he was used to abroad. More discipline, more willingness to learn. More flexibility. Bit of a shock to the system for a few, who couldn't handle it. Wanted to play where they thought they were best, rather than listening to an expert. A lot of these kids and parents needed a kick up the backside. Stick a BCFC tracksuit on em and they think they've made it. Strutting about like Kanye west. He took no prisoners. Told it like it was...but in a good way. Really started to make a difference and 'people' were taking notice...hence the episode to his eventual leaving....Shame.

Robin1988 Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 I would imagine the truth is somewhere between Spudksi's slightly bias anti-SC view and Anton not being as fantastic as he thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Skin Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Interesting insights. For me it underlines once again that the club needs a philosophy to recruit to rather than the old school manager that influences all aspects of the club.

I suggest you get your facts right before handing out insults. Anyone can read a website that's out of date. And before you go slating managers in the lower divisions of Spanish football I suggest you know bugger all about the standard over there. He's a development manager/coach. That's his forte.

His departure from San Roque de Lepe was by "mutual consent" after they were relegated... San Roque de Lepe being the club that hosted our pre-season friendly with Charlton Athletic under Keith Millen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have an axe to grind about SC. I disliked him way before he joined City. Mainly from actions carried out at Burnley. It had nothing to do with him coming in after SoD. It's not his fault the Club decided to employ him. I understand anyone thinking what you've implied, that's their prerogative. However the actions and the way SC treated some of the coaching staff present, and other people at the Academy whilst here, underlined everything I already knew about him. Some others however actually liked his presence. Each to their own, depending on each individuals agenda. 9 minutes ago, View from the Dolman said: Why did he take the job then?

Whether they divulge the reasons, is another thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it fascinating reading your stuff on here, being nothing other myself than a Bristol family man, who watches City at home as a fan since the early 90's, your insights into the game and the internal details you are privy to do make for interesting reading. Not sure if you've mentioned this before, but have you ever worked for City in any capacity, coaching, scouting etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
